Vote: Left door

The prompt clearly and explicitly states the action taken: 'he entered the door on his left.' While this is a famous quote from the video game 'The Stanley Parable'—where players can choose to disobey the narrator and take the right door instead—the sentence provided here is a definitive statement of fact regarding Stanley's action, not a prompt for us to make a choice. Therefore, based strictly on the literal text provided in the question, the only accurate and logical answer is the left door.
