Your AP should act as transparent bridge, in other words add to bridge public and local interface of AP.
Note, client interface (mode=station) does not support bridging, you need to use WDS if you have mode=station on public or remote interface of AP.

I do not understand what you are talking about.

I assume, you have two interface on "- AP with static ip same as hotspot range -", one interface connection to hotspotgateway, second interface connection to client (I assume mode=ap-bridge).
I do not know about interface to hotspotgateway (wireless, Ethernet), add interface to bridge.

from hotspotgateway to ap HotSpot(ethernet) -------- AP(ethernet Static ip same as hotspot range) - (Wireless interface with Access Point Mode to client)
