Listen to a hotel industry executive and end all doubt!!! "Run of the house" simply means that if you book this "type" of room, the hotel will/can put you into whatever room category they choose when you arrive at the hotel. Usually you will get a standard hotel room, but it is possible to be upgraded to a higher room category.
Be nice to the people checking you in, they have a LOT of latitude as far as what room type they assign you to if the resort/hotel is not full. They know what rooms face the "view" or the parking lot, etc. etc. I travel about 200 nights a year and can tell you that a friendly smile and understanding attitude WILL get you nicer rooms, views, amenities, etc

Whatever they have available at time of check-in. Ussualy run of the house room are associated with lowest rates. Either that, or when a hotel is very full they will give you a run of the house room.
Ussualy its never a problem unless they are almost sold out. The you could end up in room you would normally not want.

That is the standard description for resort properties. It means the guest has free access to all the hotel facilities and activities.

It simply means that you may do what ever you want (within reason), and have access to all amenities. I hope this helps.
