Creating 'safe' room for new kittens

Stinky carpets are not a problem with cats. They will naturally go for the litter boxes so that's not a problem. They are not like dogs! A blessing for sure.

I say pick a bedroom. Put all their stuff in there including litter boxes. This will make it their room.

There is NO NEED to lock them up at night unless you don't want them on your beds. Cats don't whine like dogs and will be quite content on the bed with you. They're pretty self sufficient little creatures.

Maybe one of the bedrooms has a window near the location of the planned outdoor run for them and you can just extend that to the window and have them access the outside through a window. You can put a cat flap in the window too.

Washing machines and toilets are often bad places for cat boxes due to some cats freaking out from the noise but the utility room is your best bet. If they get used to it as kittens there should be no problem. So you can have the cat room and the litter box in the utility room. I'd still keep it in their room though.
