Want to get my first checking account! What bank to choose?

Basically the title but I’m 18 and I want to get a bank account and a checking account. My dad wants to take me to BOA because my parents are already members and he said it would be easier to transfer money or do anything if all of us stay in the same bank. I’m just not sure if BOA is a good first bank choice or if I should look for other banks. Could you also let me know what factors to look into for my first checking account? I’m not sure what’s benefits I’m supposed to be searching for. Thanks!
