Continue on to Borobodur where I'd recommend staying at the Manohara. The Manohara is located right next to the temple so (IIRC) entry is free and you can go anytime. Can do the dawn tour and there may be an evening tour too. Get the hotel to arrange for a taxi to take you back to YOG for the flight to DPS.
Sunrise tours were cancelled. They've stopped visitors clambering up and down the structure, so i guess the tours lost their rationale. Last I heard entry starts something like 08:30.

Of course, Yogyakarta itself has things of interest beyond excursions to Borobudur.
