All this law does is prevent you from doing it through a third party like Airbnb.

Nope. The law prevents you from advertising. Period.

My suggestion? File a LLC and advertise your spare room as an "Executive Suite."

I wonder what jurisdiction (if any) New York would have if you advertised a New York rental exclusively outside of New York. Would they have any legal recourse if an Airbnb ad for your home showed up in California or London, but not in New York?
