Gun safes are excellent for storing guns and valuables. Mine has passed the test of burglary when my home was broken into while I was away and the burglar(s) turned over the place, taking my fraternity ring from the dresser (which I had forgotten to put into the gun safe with the other valuables) and taking my compound bow (which would not fit into the gun safe). Everything inside the safe was safe. He/they tried to pry it open but could not. It is as strong and heavy as an engine block.
At night I also lock my gun safe to protect my guns while I am asleep, so that no burglars can get at them.
My trusty 45ACP sleeps under my pillow with me where a burglar cannot get to it.
Most burglars don't have guns of their own, although some do.
Leaving a gun out while you are asleep is tantamount to giving them your gun.
If you can hear the burglar that is called an ordinary burglar.
If you cannot hear the burglar that is called a cat burglar.
My cat sleeps next to me and wakes me whenever there is a sound anywhere, inside or outside.
He caught a rat once at night that had camped out in the hallway closet. He is a great watch-cat.

It goes into the bathroom with me, and I lock and barricade the door. Thought of that too.
If someone is watching you and they want to get at you, they would choose the most opportune moment. That would be one of them.
Sleeping, bathing, showering, pooping -- these are all moments of vulnerability.

Not true. One of my dates named Laura actually carried a 380 mouse gun in her purse.
Her mom and dad gave it to her before she left for college.
Ironically she never learned how to shoot it. A minor oversight on her part.

Good point. Dogs are the best watchdogs (play on words). Even better than security cams.
But my cat tries hard too.

2 9mms -- one on each side of the bed. My wife and I use those bedside holsters that tuck under the mattress for support (e.g., Blackhawk, DeSantis, etc.)

You can also buy the ones that hold a tactical flashlight in addition to your gun.

There are loaded firearms in nearly every room of my house... My daily carry gun sleeps on the nightstand. Our dogs would get you before I would.....

Well, a bit off topic. Your nightstand pretty much answers the O/P's question.
I am tempted to answer the issue of the James Bond 007 spreading of guns everywhere, but I will resist.
I won't. You are far more more likely to lose your unsecured weapons to a burglar than use them to defend your home. If it's that much of a concern carry one on your person at home

Or move to an undisclosed safe location.

The real question is, can you find each gun after a year or so?

Ok then, I will agree with Mr. Eidolon.
