Senior couple (not Spanish speaking) looking for rental apartments in Malaga and Seville, but concerned about specific area of each city, amenities in apt., while avoiding disappointments when arriving. Successfully used VRBO and Airbnb in the U.S. but nervous about use in foreign country due to potential communication issues in the process. Are there travel agents that have access to same or similar rental listings that are familiar with the areas? Of course, it is understood that agents are entitled to a fee for such service.Thanks!

I've used AirBnB for several successful bookings in Spain; wouldn't be concerned. The one apartment I booked on Booking dot com was a bit less successful but ultimately worked out OK. The folks who have successful properties on AirBnB will almost always have excellent English skills; otherwise they wouldn't be successful.
