Best free and paid hosting provider
Play.hosting is truely one of the best Minecraft hosting providers, they have a lovely staff, Tibo who makes amazing videos and shows the behind the scenes of the effort to make play.hosting the best free hosting providers. They offer top class hardware for free and 3 GB of ram per server. Currently they only have one location however they are planning to expand. Would recommend 10/10 on of the best hosts out there! They also offer VPS hosting for a great price.

barely any problems
barely any problems, low ping. only complains is that waiting to wake the server up takes 30-60mins and that you can only have one server(idk anything, but they could make so that you can store multiple worlds while still maintaining the one server thing)

So far one of the best mc hosting website
So far one of the best hosting websites for Minecraft, having ability to customise your server as you wish and use all resources are one of the best things I possibly imagined about while I was on aternos

my goat
by far the best free minecraft server host around, was able to run (albeit with some difficulty) a modpack with 600+ mods with little to no lag

Good host, but a bit annoying sometimes
I've been pretty happy with play.hosting, but the VPS hosting is sometimes annoying. It has like "micro-downtimes" of a few seconds to a few minutes every now and then, where I then have to connect to the server again to start the program running on there, which is pretty annoying, but else good. Pricing isn't the most appealing, but not much over market.
