@SivILCC I was able to duplicate this issue in my game.  This problem applies not only to penthouse apartments but to any multi-story apartment.  If you bulldoze the apartment, you will be unable to place stairs unless you first redraw room(s) in which to place them or place them against the edge of the apartment.  The error message that appears is "Bottom of stairs are off lot" and the visual shows a red triangle far overhead.  Will add to our list.

Were you able to place them after you built the rooms again? I don't think I could do it, but I will check again tomorrow and see.

I'm having this issue now too. Has there been any update on a fix yet?

I had this problem and what I discovered is that the floor of the upper level was gone so there was no way to add stairs.  I added the floor back in and was able to add the stairs.  I used the flat square in the walls build section and expanded it to fit the room.
