A beautiful place to see...
The station is well maintained and Waiting hall is also nice. One thing which you should keep in mind is you'll get drinking water for refilling which has taste and scent of Chlorination tablets. All over Shimla you'll get the same water with same taste.

When i went to Shimla, it was really a tough job to enjoy the scenic beauty from balcony. Even in Hanuman temple also we had to face monkeys.

I always put my specs in pocket whenever i see monkeys.

Not a problem since i have been grown up in Firozabad which is having a large population of monkeys(equal to Mathura/Vridavan).

Besides Shimla, PRS counter is also available in Manali!
Right at the Mall road, so tourists visiting Manali-Rohtang from Shimla can get PRS tickets (Tatkal or otherwise) from Manali itself!

), limited food options ( only aloo paratha ) in canteen and also no dhabas nearby, no TV's ( some one reported there are TV, but there wasn't any).
