What does run of the house mean when making a hotel reservation?

"Run of the house" means that all rooms are the same price, regardless of room type. Reservations for specific rooms or room types are not accepted. The assumption is that you will be offered the best available room when you arrive at the hotel. Nevertheless, it is advisable to look at other available rooms if the "best" one you are shown first is not to your liking.
