First Scenario: Check the guest record and profile in the system, from there you would be able to identify the guest including the sharer. If still on doubt, get the guest signature and match it on their registration card. 

Second Scenario: Housekeeping staff should call the reception first, they cannot just open the room for them unless the attendant knows the guest very well. Otherwise, they can talk to the guest politely and explain why they cannot open the room for them and why it is better to go to the reception to get another key.

What my organization is do :

When the guest is registered, his identity proof are being scanned alongwith the web-pic and updated the booking records of hotel, so if such situation arise, it can resolved on data records basis.
