I'm using Nest to build a query. I have a class called Event which has a property called Location and a property called Address (a string). So the indices look something like this:

```auto
"id" : "something1",
"location": {
    "address": "The Club",
}

"id" : "something2",
"location": {
    "address": "The Hole",
}

```

I want to create a query where the user types "The Club" (the location variable) and it only retrieves the first item that has "The Club" as the address

This is my current query

```auto
 var skip = (page - 1) * rows;
  var searchResponse = await _elasticClient.SearchAsync<Event>(s => s
            .From(skip)
            .Size(rows)
            .Query(q => q
                .QueryString(qs => qs
                    .Fields(fields => fields
                        .Field(f => f.Location.Address)
                    )
                    .Analyzer("keyword")
                    .Query("*" + (location ?? string.Empty) + "*")
                )
            ));

```

Currently, the query retrieves both objects since it finds "The". Do I need to add something to my index previously or what should I do?
