I don’t think that would fly. That’s pretty much like some hostels on the northside where apartments are converted into subdivided areas for sleeping, each bed a separate reservation.

No, these are licensing regulations.
You do not apply for a new license each time some jamoke rents a room.
A maximum of six units in a building can be licensed as Vacation Rentals.
Because the definition says:
“Vacation rental” means a dwelling unit that contains 6 or fewer sleeping rooms that are available for rent or for hire for transient occupancy by guests,
if you had a building with at least 24 dwelling units, you could make 6 of them 6 bedroom suites and get 36 reservations at a time under the loosest interpretation of the ordinance. However the remaining 18 dwelling units could not be vacation rentals or shared housing.
To go beyond that number, you need a hotel license, in which case thee upper limit to the number of rooms is not defined.
