Generally you can more easily adjust for longer legs with seat height on a smaller bike that fits your more ‘normal torso/arm length rather than go with the bigger frame you may not have the arm and torso length to stretch out over.
It's fine to go to your LBS for advice about sizing as long as you're up front about your plans to purchase online rather than from them. Some LBS will assemble and tune a bike and can offer this service if you're not going to build it yourself.
