    Clearly, you’re going to need to look up the detailed rules, but I think it’s virtually certain from the nuggets of information that you have provided that you have three floors of habitable building.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Right Muppet and that is your name MUPPET.
    As soon as you talk about being a Landlord and three storey property you are in a whole different world when it comes to renting out rooms in a property with three floors.
    A mains wired smoke alarm with a panel showing where the alarm ( smoke FIRE !) is.
    Which floor/room.
    Fire doors, turn lock escape doors and windows ! Fire extinguishers, smoke blankets , size of bedrooms.
    HMO licence and check by your local council.
    Selective licensing as you maybe refused permission to rent out the rooms FULL STOP.
    Total Muppet

    perfect internet thread

    - vague initial question with irrelevant info
    - follow up comment finally provides relevant context for the real question wanted in the first place after initial responses have wasted everyone's time
    - answer easily found by own efforts as the question is simply one of facts, not understanding
    - but so much easier not to make any effort or to answer questions that would provide specific answers, instead wait to be spoon fed
    - gets spoon fed, fails to provide follow up info that would tailor the feeding to the actual context and thus be the "right" answer
    - feels hard done by and picks on the respondees instead

    Or it was a wind up all along.

    Simple rule of thumb for this type of question...

    If you need to know for some specific requirement, then ask the people judging the requirement. Or, at the very minimum, tell us what the requirement is.

    If not for a specific requirement, and it's only for your own personal interest, then go with whatever answer makes you happy...
