If I want to emphasize that I live on the elevator from lobby to 17th how can I say?

I live on a floor deserted by these 2 elevators not those 2.

I live on the third to last floor of my elevators not the 2 that go from the 18th to the 31st.

Thanks!!

You can take the first bank of elevators directly to the 15th floor where you will find my flat.
You can take the second bank of elevators to their first stop at the 18th floor and walk three flights down the stairs to the 15th floor where you will find my flat.

It's perfectly clear, but one thing please
Is the first sentence correct please?
The first stop of the second bank of elevators is the 18th floor.

If I want him to find the floor on his own as a game, how would you say this?
I live on a floor of that bank of elevators. It's up to you to find out which floor.

Thank you in advance

AnonymousI live on a floor of that bank of elevators. It's up to you to find out which floor.
I live somewhere in the building.
Here is a hint: an elevator in the first bank will stop at my floor; an elevator in the second bank will not.
