If you can plant them, that's the best way to go. However, if you do store them, no light. You want to keep them as dormant as possible. Light will trigger the plant to come out of dormancy.

The bare root roses are held in in dark cold storage until they are shipped. If you can replicate those conditions, you can delay the plant from breaking out of dormancy.

Good luck with your roses.
I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.
