Could start off by getting one of the cheaper Sjoberg workbenchs. There is a $354 shipped bench that is MDF laminate or a Birch version for $429.
Of course you can always make your own, but Sjorbergs is top quality, those prices include shipping, and you can set it up our of the box when it gets there, since you have limited tools and space to do anything at the moment.
Once you get a workbench set up, you'll probably want to lay something down in your work area on the floor. If you have some sort of hard surface, you're going to want to protect it from anything you might drop and if it's carpeted, you'll want a nice hard solid surface to work on. Maybe get some of those piece together puzzle type gym mats (don't know the real names for them).
If you stick with hand tools (chisels, hand planes, hand saws) you can really minimize the saw dust that will be floating around everywhere. For clean up, you can pick up a small five gallon shopvac from any big box store or even walmart for around $30.
