Here is a picture of a two-story building with three stairwells from board 45:
The 4-5-7 can clearly move from R5h2 into Q5h2. Since there is no 2nd level in P4, the unit cannot move into P4h2. So the other side of the building is inaccessible short of going to the ground level, then move to O4, then up the stairwell.
Now the question is, with all three stairwells rubbled, can the 4-5-7 move anywhere? Can the 4-5-7 move into Q5h2 (not sure how to play that given the 1/2 building across the hexside) and P4h2 but that is it? Is it stuck for the rest of the game? Can it climb out of the building, then, I suppose?
To put another way, if a multi-hex building has indicated stairwells (white square) that are inaccessible for some reason (e.g., rubble) does that mean the rest of the building is off limits? As opposed to a multi-hex building that only has inherent stairwells.
