The drier you can keep it the better it will smell. Also your run sounds very closed up with tarps on all sides, which will keep in moisture and smell. Perhaps you can roll the tarps down from the top to open it up some. In winter I only give bathing water periodically. I also like to give the water in a location other than the small run near their house to minimize the wet mess. You will likely need to remove ALL the straw periodically and replace with new.
We open up the one side during the day & it’s where they like to sit & look out when we don’t let them out to explore. It’s also where they like to go to the bathroom.
We also have gaps at the top between the panels & the roof. There small enough to be safe while providing ventilation.
We do let them have water, two heated dog bowls, 24/7. It’s close to where they go to the bathroom.
