The Hive Ellendale

The building itself is fairly nice, but a bit overpriced. The quality of the management, however, is entirely unacceptable. They have demonstrated a lack of professionalism, communication, and competence. My security deposit was subjected to several unjustified deductions, including numerous cleaning fees and even repainting the door. I had multiple discussions with the manager (who is nearly impossible to reach), but these concerns were not adequately addressed. What is even worse is the horrendous state of the apartment when first moving in. I had to spend hours scrubbing the floor given how dirty they left it, which raises the question about how these deductions are actually utilized. Moreover, I lost nearly thousands of dollars from a summer sublet due to the manager's failure to respo

Living at The Hive was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with housing. They took $136 from my security deposit to replace a smoke detector battery—yes, a battery. After arguing for months without resolution, I can confidently say this place is a scam. Good luck reaching them, too—call right now, I dare you. No one will pick up. The cockroach infestation was unbearable, and management couldn’t care less. They have the nerve to charge over $1300 per person for double rooms. Charging that much for a single room is reasonable, but for doubles? It’s outrageous. When our oven shattered out of nowhere, there was broken glass everywhere that we constantly tried to clean, but even after continual communication with management, it took them nearly a month to replace it. Their washers and

This apartment was charged 950 and they wanted to increase it about 200-300 dollars the rent for the next year when renewing. You share space with people and my roommate in this case was a really dirty and disorganized person. Who left the toilet black and water everywhere (he cleans himself with water after using the toilet) there were tissues all over the apartment and after some roports and a fine that he got the problem was still the same until I leftt . Not with the price. There is better near by cheaper and nicer

I've been living at the Hive since August 2021, back when it was called Victory on Ellendale. The Victory brand owned the Ellendale property until February 2022. The management was amazing. They took time to build personal connections with the residents, hosted events for us, and were very easy to communicate about all issues. The apartments themselves are really nice. Bedrooms are decent but a little small but the common area is really big. It's modern, newly renovated, and comes with all furniture and utilities included. Then, in February, Champion Real Estate sold Victory on Ellendale to the new property management, The Hive. The new management is alright but not nearly as good as Victory and far more disconnected from residents. There is construction going on so a lot of noise and t

One of the worst living experiences. This people took about 2 months to send me my deposit back and partially because they still have to send me another amount. I had to contact them because it has been to long and they said “oh sorry there was a problem with the direct deposit” they didn’t even care about it informing. My scooter was stolen when it was inside of the building and nothing was done about it. Knowing that it was the fault of the building as the car door is always open.
