“An exception to this general rule occurs when there are within a residence areas or zones for the exclusive use of one tenant or the other. In such a situation, there is no `common authority' which would justify a search based on consent from the non-occupying party. This premise is true in a host/guest relationshipi.e., the host could not consent to a search of a room set aside exclusively for the use of a guest.”
