Slovak Rail Bratislava Košice recent customer reviews
The trip was terrible, the train stopped in the middle of the way, the passengers were dropped off, part of the way was taken by bus, then by another train. The inconvenience with things is not as important as the fact that we were late for the next train. We were forced to pay extra money, be nervous and take a detour trying to catch the next trains. A terrible trip, I do not recommend it to anyone.
