I use the elevator if I'm going a long ways or if it's just sitting there waiting for me. Otherwise I use the stairs.

Actually my reply should day "it depends"

I just about always use the stairs when going down - no matter how many levels up I am. Going up depends on what others have identified. Namely how many levels, what I'm carrying, and whether I need to be able to breathe when I get to my destination!

Also safety is sometimes an issue. Generally I find the elevators in (for example) parking buildings to be safer-feeling than stairs at night. Better lit and more populated.

But wherever feasible I'll take the stairs.

Up to the 3rd Floor, i use the stairs, but the Elevator is more easy (lazy).

How about "I try to use the stairs when it's feasible"? I mnostly use stairs, but obviously I'll take the elevator if it's 10 stories, or if it's more than one and I don't want to show up flustered, so I wouldn't say "always."

The doors are locked when one takes the stairs (at work), so one has to take the elevator. This is for security reasons (child abduction, etc.) I work in a hospital.
