I spent one week with my family (2 kids of 6 & 2) in Kris' s place in Jan 2016. The property title on Airbnb is really adequate , the place is truly amaaazing with many a's, and the pics are really understating how beautiful the loft is and how great is its view on the harbour. From there you are just meters away from all Lyttelton hot spots. It is one place you will remember for long you have stayed in.

Any cons? Well, Lyttelton is really a small town, so you may feel you have seen it all in matter of a couple of days, but I guess it is part of the way how to enjoy New Zealand in general.. Christchurch city center offers little bit more options when you get tired of the town and it is only 20 min by car from Lyttelton, 40 min by bus.
