Where I live, many apartments are build in a way that after you open the door of an apartment, then you have a small room "entrance room" in which people can put their shoes or other things, and from there there are another rooms (such as kitchen and bedroom or living room etc.).
This room is variable in its size, but I'm asking about 6*2M room. Now we call it corridor, and when I translate this word to English it is called also corridor… Now the issue is that the definition in Cambridge dictionary for the word corridor is:
Corridor: a long passage in a building or train, especially with rooms on either side.
It seems that corridor in my language and corridor in English is not the same, and in English people call this place in a different name. What is this name for our corridor?
The following illustration demonstrates this area by the number 4.

Not one hundred percent sure, but I think it's called an entrance hallway. It definitely can't be just a hallway because hallways are typically long, spacious corridors that connect apartments on the same floor.
