One of the very few times I would suggest transit hotel.
With 3 kids, you will not emerge from immigration before 11:15 PM at best.
You would have to be back by 6:00 AM the next morning to pass security and immigration.
That's leaving 6 hours 45 minutes for shuttle bus /taxi X 2, check-in and check-out, and herding around and settling down 3 kids,
then shaking them awake from too little sleep.

Under these cicrumstances, I would just make do with the too expensive, too small, transit hotel.
You will all get at least one hour more sleep.
