It appears to be $(Build.SourcesDirectory).

@letmaik You can get it to go somewhere else by using "downloadDirectory":

- task: UniversalPackages@0
  displayName: 'Universal download'
  inputs:
    command: download
    vstsFeed: 'PackageFeed'
    vstsFeedPackage: 'Package'
    vstsPackageVersion: 1.0.0
    downloadDirectory: '$(Build.SourcesDirectory)\anotherfolder'
