It possible some service woke your PC to perform some tasks.

Open command prompt and type in "powercfg - lastwake" without quote to find out the cause and let me know.

Hmmm USB 3.0 port, is some device plugged in USB 3.0 port?

You will need to open Device Manager to expand device plugged in USB 3.0 and right click on properties then click on Power Management tab to untick "Allow this device to wake up the computer".
