Parking at Dublin Port

Has anyone overnighted at the Topaz station in Dublin Port? I'm led to believe there is secure truck parking for €10 per 24 hours.

In my case I'd use it for nights out in Dublin. Rather than have to catch an early train or pay €200 for a hotel I could bring the Knaus.

Ive seen lots on here about it, but never tried it. Seems to be safe and secure by all accounts.

the only thing is that it is noisy, would staying at the likes of Camac Valley not be a better solution.

It's sometimes possible to park slightly further away from the fridge trucks, that have their coolers going all night. It's a great place if you're sailing out in the morning, but I would deffo wear ear plugs. There's hot food and toilets etc in the service station. Very safe.

We did that and enjoyed it but found the bus fare was pretty expensive and, I think, took quite a long time.
Cheaper than a hotel, I know, but with the campsite fee it did cost a bit...
