Best tactic here involves a 2 stage attack on the ship: securing the doors and securing the lifts.
Once you have moved soldiers onto each of the one-square lifts on the ground floor, you can prepare for the final assault at some leisure, due to the aliens' typical reluctance to shoot straight down a gravlift. You can, of course, shoot straight up at them.
The assault on the middle floor can be executed as a pincer attack from both lifts if you cut through the wall of the three-story lift with heavy plasma.
