Our stay was short and we arrived after dark. Nontheless, plonked right in front of one of Gisborne's lovely rivers with plenty of trees and a prim green garden I can tell you that this is a nice enough little spot.
The ensuite room is connected to the main house but has its own entrance and looks onto the garden and the adjacent river bank.
Not right in town but close enough to everything if you don't mind a slow 20-30 minute walk or a shorter cycle or drive.
A taxi from the centre of town (Gladstone Rd) cost us $10; very reasonable!
