Reference for Megillah 51:15

והאי תנא סבר לא נתחלקה ירושלים לשבטים דתניא אין משכירים בתים בירושלים מפני שאינן שלהן ר"א (בר צדוק) אומר אף לא מטות לפיכך עורות קדשים בעלי אושפיזין נוטלין אותן בזרוע

The following Tanna, however, held that Jerusalem was not apportioned to any of the tribes, as it has been taught: It is forbidden to rent out houses in Jerusalem as they do not belong to them. R. Elazar b. Zadok says: It is even forbidden to rent out beds. Therefore householders [who took in guests] would seize the hides of [their visitors’] sacrifices forcibly.
