Well kind of does, the ceiling of the current level is the floor of the level above it.
Can confirm, in German we say "erstes Obergeschoss" (first upper floor) or "erste Etage" for the second/first floor, and "Erdgeschoss" (earth floor) for first/ground floor.
If you leave out the words entirely there is one group that counts (3,2,1,-1,-2), another that counts (2,1,-1,-2,-3), and the other three that count (2,1,0,-1,-2). Last one wins obviously, just by virtue of using numbers correctly.
