You were right the second time. The comma delineates where a pause or change in direction would begin to be described. In your case, the 'on the wall opposite of...' is its own complete description. To make it easier, you might just change the wording a little...
"...written on the wall on the opposite side of the room..." something like that. Hope it helps.

The second one. You should never put a comma in the middle of a thought like you did on the first.
The second one completes the thought and leads the reader to your next point.
In other words, IT IS RIGHT!!!!
YIPPY, YES
Sometimes, it is exciting being right.

I believe it is the second sentence. Although I think you could use the first sentence as well. However, the second sentence makes more sense in this context.
