If a player run behind a wall, use Hide (as an action), then comes out, they will still be "hidden"?

I'm the DM at this table (Lost Mine of Phandelver, 5e), and our Halfling Rogue, is doing that to gain the advantage attack from Unseen Attackers.

His actions goes like following:

  1. Run behind a wall (in the corner or behind the stairs for example).
  2. Use Rogue's Cunning Action to Hide as a bonus action.
  3. On his next turn, move 5 feet (just to get out of the wall) and attack (with a bow) the enemy with advantage from Unseen Attackers.
  4. repeat.

When he uses the hide action, I ask him for a Stealth check, then I compare with the enemies Passive Perception.

Because he is a Rogue with +7 stealth, is very hard to actually detect him.

Are we using Hide correctly? Should I keep letting he have the Unseen Attackers advantage?
