Hello,
I live in a second floor apartment. I am trying to figure out my main entrance. The configuration is as follows: I enter a door from the outside and face a staircase located between 2 walls at the end of which I enter the actual living space on my right(there is no door, just an "opening"). Is the main entrance the one at the bottom of the stairs or the opening at the top of the stairs.
P.S. The stairs are part of the apartment they are not common area of other apartments.
Thank You!

Dear Anon,
Based on what you had explained, the more common approact is the door which you enter the actual living space and not the door at the ground level before approaching the living space.
The rationale is because if one takes the `exterior' door, the compass direction extends outwards and it is hard to pinpoint the main entrance door.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
