IMO, nothing is very far away, so downtown works rather easily. There are many mid level Hilton properties near UCF.  My favorite value is the Hilton Garden Inn, because of the made to order Bfast bar, but that may not be all that important to others.

The UCF Double tree is not only the UCF team hotel, but the hotel visiting teas use, so o any given day, it is full with visiting AAC teams, playing other sports. Therooms there are smallish, but the Bfast there, is good, not all world, but good/

If you have specific questions, ask away. 

Downtown is also OK, I would avoid I drive, but that increases the options. 

This will allow you to do some shopping:

It's not a, "college town",  but the bars around there do have a lot of college kids go, especially Knight Library.

+1 UCF has a nice mix where it's not quite like a land grant college town but East Orlando is separated enough in its little corner of Metro Orlando where it feels like it

Yeah I’d like your input please

it depends what you want. Staying Downtown will be more expensive and require more driving on gameday but is great for bar hopping. The UCF area would be cheaper and is more of suburban setup but you still have solid options to eat/drink pre and post game(Bar Louie, World of Beer). Knight Library, Stagger Inn, & Knights Pub are the bars most current students go to. If you decide to stay by UCF and want to do minimal driving the DoubleTree UCF/Eeast Orlando is the best bet.  If you decide to stay Downtown I'd recommend the Embassy Suites on Pine Street.

I forgot about that weekend being Thanksgiving weekend. I'd definitely stay Downtown. The UCF Area will be a little more dead than usual

 

If the teams played this weekend for example there would be way more of an atmosphere on the East side of town.

But why would a USF fan care about staying near bars that cater to those college kids ... ? Like 04 said, there's tons of places to stay away from there but convenient to get to ...

Because smack talk is always better in the other guy's place...

If you're talking about the night before the game, unless they have a loss before then, what in the hell is there to smack talk about??

About what you're ABOUT to do to their wimps on the field. Smack talk in advance is far superior to smack talk after the game. If we lose, it's just sour grapes, if we win, it's vain boasting.

No sir, proper smack talk is done BEFORE the event, not after.
