I have seen a very nicely finished 1 bedroom apartment to rent in Bagnolet, which sleeps up to 4 people, so it would be ideal for a family break. It benefits from a balcony, garden and parking.
Another Seine Saint Denis apartment to rent I very much liked the look of is a 2 bedroom apartment in Gagny.

It’s in a small block of only 2 floors in a quiet road, and is just 20 minutes from the centre of Paris on the RER.
