As my go-to bank for storing the majority of my liquid funds, Ally online bank has been a solid part of my portfolio for several years. When you sign up for an Ally account you'll enjoy one of the highest APY's available at any bank, quick and easy withdrawals, and 24/7 customer service. The customer service is especially of note since many online banks limit your ability to talk to an actual person and most brick-and-mortar banks limit the hours in which you can reach someone. In general, I am much more interested in investing money than I am in putting it in a bank, however, I think everyone should have at least a little "emergency" money stashed away in a liquid account. In my experience, Ally is the perfect place for your stash.
