0 1. I'd say a "room" is more enclosed and probably has a door that can be opened and closed, while a "space" is part of a larger area - for example, a large L-shaped area might have a dining space and a living space. If this doesn't quite seem to fit your context, please quote what you are getting these terms from, and I can try again.
