The location of the floor clock is as shown below
Detailed solution
Observe that there are two arrows on the wall. The longer one represents the longer minute hand, and the shorter one represents the hour hand. Try the second hand one by one (of course you can try both one by one, but the maximum number of attempts is 36 times)

It follows: the minute hand points to 2 o'clock.
