Are the waste pipes vented properly?
Depending on the layout, seems like the pipes could be venting up through the drains in that bathroom and causing a smell - if for example the normal vent pipe is blocked or improperly installed.

I am no expert here at all, so hopefully someone with more experience will chime in. However my guess would be:
1 - Depending on the venting system in place, but yeah you could be the worst affected as you suggest. 2 - I would think that checking the roof / the top of the vent pipe for environmental blockages, caused by animals or plants, would be a good idea
Again, I'm guessing here.
