The best checking accounts you will find out there today are the ones that offer both free accounts and perks for all, not just for what they call a "good" client. To most banks, a "good" client is one who rarely or never overdraws the account, who always has money coming in, and/or who likes to do all their banking online. Not everyone is capable of being perfect, so it is always wonderful to find an account available for anyone, not just the "good" people.
Most checking accounts these days are your basic personal accounts, and tend to include free checking, discounts on check purchases, check card replacement, and online banking. However, there are several banks out there who will offer not just your basic personal checking account, but who offer a free savings account bundled together with the checking, along with special bonus perks such as extra interest on the accounts, a cash bonus on the account aniversary date, 1% cash back on credit or debit card purchases, free checks, no ATM fees on another bank's ATM, and much more. When you are looking for an account like this, don't just look online. Pick up the phone and talk to an actual person at the bank in question, to make sure that you really are getting these offers. If not, hang up and keep trying. You don't want to be duped into an account that will end up costing you half your paycheck in hidden fees every month. It is worth the time and effort to find those free personal checking accounts that really are free.
To summarize, a truly good checking account is an account that is truly free, offers perks for any client, not just the "good" client, offers several perks like cash bonuses, cash back, no ATM fees, free checks, etc., and its always good to look for one that also offers the free savings account as well. These accounts do exist, and in fact are becoming more and more popular each day. It also helps to try to find a smaller, cozier branch of the bank, for more personalized and friendly service.
