Yes, and it works for that market because this isn't a jarring or unexpected user experience. We expect that hotels, B&B's, apartments, condos, etc. might have different sizes, amenities, locations, and prices. We're usually willing to invest a little time in looking at them. Thus we're willing to accept a well-designed search process with filters and such.

We aren't willing to do this for a bunch of nearly-identical rides while we're standing on a streetcorner hoping to locate said ride in the next 2-3 minutes. Uber/Lyft simply replace the on-demand point-to-point ride. It's a commodity. Gotta keep it simple...

If Sidecar still existed, I'd be more apt to use that kind of platform to book a private car for a period of hours. Then the analogy would make sense...finding someone to drive me around a foreign city for a day of sightseeing, for example. Or maybe, for a more simple domestic use case, a stretch limo ride to/from a special event. Then I'm willing to check out different makes/models of vehicles, additional amenities (drinks, snacks, etc.), and varying prices would be the norm.
