Long Connection at DOH - lounge access

I've had several long connections in DOH (8+ hours) and never had an issue with lounge access. However, my spouse and I have an overnight connection coming up (15 hours). I was thinking of getting us a hotel outside of the airport, but I'm now thinking of just booking a room at the Oryx hotel in the terminal. My question is whether we will be able to access the QR lounge during the entirety of our stay? We are traveling J connecting to F so I know we have access to the Al Safwa lounge for our connection. I'm thinking check-in, shower, then go to the lounge, have drinks and dinner before bed. Then up in the morning and breakfast in lounge before boarding the flight.

This saves the hassle of customs on arrival and entry/exit immigration as well as transport to/from the hotel. It also probably means at least an extra hour of sleep.

And yes, I know there are sleep rooms in the F lounge, but I believe they are limited to 6 hours of use.

Anyone ever used the lounge for a connection this long?
