Benefits: One file can be used to control multiple documents having different styles. Multiple HTML elements can have many documents, which can have classes. To group styles in composite situations, methods as selector and grouping are used. Demerits: Extra download is needed to import documents having style information. To render the document, the external style sheet should be loaded. Not practical for small style definitions.

Presentational attributes have to be set every time you want to use them on an element, whereas with style sheets you declare them once and your done. Also, with style sheets you have more fine-grain control over the style of your site then you could ever achieve with presentational attributes.
