What are the key benefits of using hstore over simple K:V storage in Postgres where you split the key in its own column and value in its own column ?

Thank you for any inputs.

You don't need to do an entity attribute value model in a separate table 
to include mutliple key value pairs. since an hstore is schemaless, you 
can include them all in one column for a particular row.
