If you build a 3x3 1 story house and place a bed in it, invariably you will awaken to a mob in your house - regardless of light levels. Some people blame dirt floors, or blocks not meeting squarely, but that doesn't seem to be it. I've had large houses with the same issue though. I tend to always sleep in an upper story room now. The first floor is too spooky.
A trick... They can't spawn on top of glass blocks. So, any dark horizontal surface bigger than 2x2 will allow them to spawn.
Interesting. I was actually going to light up my house with little lava blocks covered by glass blocks in the floor because I don't like the looks of torches everywhere.
I also found this neat looking greenhouse idea I plan on trying. It looks good and should be very functional.
