Perfect that there is a bed in her room. Sleeping with her the first few nights in her room will do wonders for her getting used to the new home... You have two totally different things to tackle: A new home/routine and new pets in the new home. If you tackle the new home first, the introduction to the other cats later will go much better...
I did think of another thing. After she is more relaxed in her room in a few days, and seems to want out, you may want to shut the other two cats up in a room for a while to give her free/safe run of the house a few times so she can get used to the whole house before meeting the other cats...
So, isolation for a few days with you sleeping with her in your room; then safe/free run of the house with the other cats behind closed door; then slow introduction to the other cats... Might take you up to a month to get this all done, but slow and steady will win this race and pay off big term in the end.
She'll give you cues when she wants to get out of the room and explore the rest of the house, etc... ----- Tammy
