“Not the best place but you can manage and a lot of people see you. Just before entry to the station. The beside the billboard so you have a little of the shadow.”

“you have a billboard you can stand in front of for shade. also people can easily stop for you at the gas station. there are many people and also most are driving in the direction of bratislava.”

“One male 40+, with a sigh "BRATISLAVA", one big backpack, a sunny day. On my way from Brno to Budapest (successful). It looks like a good place. The entrance to the pertol station, with loads of space (enough for 2-3 lorries). After the traffic lights, so people drive slowly, and can see you easily. There are also downsides. It's before the big junction, and cars go everywhere, to Prage, Viena,”

“A small petrol station but with enough traffic that goes further south and it's easy to reach.”

“best place to leave the car if it's going only till bratislava but you'd like to go further south/east. some long-distance travellers stop here. asking helps quite a lot.”

“We (me+GF) tried to get a ride to Vienna. We stood with a sign for 2 hours with no success so we decided to ask drivers and managed to get a ride pretty fast (it´s probably the best way). Very little traffic and most of it was local. A hard place to hitch from but at least there´s a free toilet+drinking water, shade and a really cheap and huge supermarket (Kaufland) nearby if you have to spend ”

“Easy to get to, but you may have to wait for a little while. Mostly local traffic and not many trucks stop here, but eventually I got a ride all the way to Budapest.”

“Get out here if your ride goes into Bratislava and you want to continue. Small place with not much traffic, but I got a ride to Budapest at 3 o'clock in the night.”
