I'd prefer not to add the prefix here. @frankyn WDYT?

Could you clarify the difference between response.text and error (add comments I suspect others will ask this question when reviewing the code in the future).
I also think repsonse.text could be added to the line below when constructing the message value instead of this conditional.

@frankyn I have added condition here to match the method which is responsible for other http responses and errors declared in pytho-api-core.exceptions.from_http_response you can find here https://github.com/googleapis/python-api-core/blob/622931721ce34839d630aa1e974c7d8f47b5d25e/google/api_core/exceptions.py#L390-L411
response.text: gives the actual reason of errorstr(error): gives ('Request failed with status code', 404(Error Code), 'Expected one of', <HTTPStatus.OK: 200>, <HTTPStatus.PARTIAL_CONTENT: 206>)
I think here we can remove str(error) as it's not meaning full for the users, also not included in other http methods from python-api-core as mention above.

I think I need to pull in @andrewsg on this one when he has a moment.
Andrew do you have guidance on raising the actual error that occurred in this case?

If I understand correctly, the problem here is the same as I've observed elsewhere where the API responds with human-readable text which is not converted into a specific error message by our client library. Prepending this human-readable text does make sense though I'm neutral on whether we should include the "unknown error" prepending in the else case.
We should make sure that the traceback still includes the original function call that caused the error.

Thanks @andrewsg.
I don't see the value of unknown error: and could be confusing otherwise. Please only preppend response.text when it's available. Remove unknown error:.
