Using a larger value, op to 20, can help in smoothing some rough edges.

Try 5 to bring some more light down the hallway.

Reducing this may eliminate some artefacts.

Should be kept at the default of 0

Should be left at default of 1

Try something smaller, like 1/256. It can help when you have very bright
and dark areas.

Just an idea :
Try rendering it all in one go, then, project onto a box or sphere :
First, render using this camera :
camera{
spherical
angle 360
up y
right x*2
}
Render with a 2:1 aspect ratio with radiosity.
The image will look a little strange with both ends of the hallway
visible at the same time.
You may want to do a test without radiosity first to get a feel of how
it work.
Next, project the resulting image onto a box :
box{-1, 1
pigment{image_map{ png"ImageName.png" map_type 1 scale <-1,1,1>}}
finish{emission 1 diffuse 0 ambient 0}
}
Or a sphere :
sphere{0 1
pigment{image_map{ png"ImageName.png" map_type 1 scale <-1,1,1>}}
finish{emission 1 diffuse 0 ambient 0}
}
Render with a normal camera at <0,0,0> with no light.
If the image is to bright or dim, adjust emission to compensate.
As the whole scene was rendered as a single image, there can be no
seams, allowing you to use more relaxed radiosity settings.
The final renders will be fast as the geometry is simple, there are no
light, and only an image_map to evaluate.
