Helios room difference/standard and deluxe? worth extra $?

Hi,, for August, 3 adults, Helios standard for 2 nights is $1194, deluxe is $1526 (both includes tax). The difference in size is 325 vs 415 sq ft. Do you think that extra footage is worth it? I know it will be our decision at the end of the day, so I guess I'm asking, that extra footage, I wonder if you'll actually feel it-if it's in the living area where the beds are that would be good, but if the extra footage is in the entrance way, then it wouldn't be, thanks for your thoughts!

The extra room is in the sleeping area, there's a couch where the standard doesn't have a couch. The couch may block some of the window, which may matter if you have a theme park view. The floor plan is on the website for each room type.
If you're using the room just to sleep, it may not be worth it. If you spend more time in the room, I think the extra space would be nice.
If I had to choose between a deluxe and a theme park view, I would choose the view, but that's just me.

ok thanks, I guess when I think about it, it's 2 nights, and the first night we get there around 6pm (flying in), next day we're going to Epic, then following day heading to Disney Springs. I guess we won't be in the room much-we wanted it for the early entrance and being able to walk right into Epic. thank you! Might not be worth it then...if we were there longer, we might appreciate the larger room.
