Best service to order a photo book?

Where is the best place to design and order a photo book? I want to create one for our last family vacation and I rather not pick the wrong service. I am looking for quality first but I want a decent price. I plan to continue to make photo books as well since we have all of these digital photos we take but we never display them.

So far people have recommended to my Costco, Walgreens, Vista Print, and someone mentioned Snapfish which I have never heard of.

Does anyone have recommendations? Also it would be nice if I had a lot of designs and templates of the photo book to choose. It also needs to be easy to create the pages of the book and to place the pictures. I use my laptop daily for email, word docs, etc... but I have no experience in dealing with photos.
