Favorite: Lichenous Lairs
Worst: first FSC level (just done it too much)
Favorite : All types of Arena's
Worst: All Danger Missions

Favorite: Ghosts in the Machine (Before the update to Soul spawn rates)
Least Favorite: Shadowplay or Grasping Plateau during lag
Favorite: Daily Biscotti Mission
Worst: Devilish Drudgery or Compounds
Favorite level (s): Treasure Vaults, Anniversary Cake Missions, The Low Gardens, Firestorm Citadel Throne Room.
Least favorite level(s): Compounds, Fiend-type Arenas, Danger Missions, Deconstruction Zones, Fire-type and Shock-type Devilish Drudgery areas, and any level that contains the Swarm.
Oh I like all of the levels but my favorite to play through is compounds. I love fighting the minis and the difficulty is spot on... if the rewards were as spot on I'm sure others would love it too.
My fav for gameplay: Ice Queen by a mile. Most fun I have ever had in Spiral Knights, period.
My fav for visual: Rabid Snarbolax and Ice Queen are tied in this one. Both have an aura of the status in play with it, making the switch between the low graphics and high graphics worth every FPS down.
My least fav for gameplay: It's a tie between OCH and Devilish Drudgery. In OCH, there are too many long boring stretches with no or very little mobs. In Devilish Drudgery, the case of annoying demons get at me again.
My least fav for visual: Legion of Almire. I just find it boring.
Much to my surprise, no one had mentioned a shadow lair. To me, the two I've done so far, Rabid Snarbolax and Ice Queen, were some of the most interesting levels I've played, as well as the most challenging levels that I've played. ._.
Fav: FSC - $$$
Least: FSC - zzz
Just kidding. UFSC is my favourite but you need money to go to it so...
Favourite - Among others, there are Arenas, the floating island type levels, Scarlet Fortress and Treasure Vault. Actually, I like a lot of things, especially if I could just tear through everything that gets in my way as I shower in the resulting loot.
Least Favourite - Ugh. Compounds! Especially the part with the respawning mini enemies. In fact, when it comes to that point, a more important priority than getting as much loot as possible is getting out of there quickly!
Favorite in visuals is definitely Dreams and Nightmares. It's just so serene... I saw many people complaining about the simplicity of the place but its abstract geometry and all that just kinda reaches out to me.
Favorite in gameplay is probably a tie between Dreams and Nightmares, Arenas, Grinchlin Assault's parts until the final boss room, and the Tortodrone boss fight. Those are the levels I have to pay a bit more attention to to play flawlessly, and I love the challenge. Oh! And I also love the Ironclaw Munitions Factory... Just a lot of fun.
Least favorite in visuals? I don't really know, love the visuals of this game. If I had to choose any I'd probably say that clockwork tunnels are some of the more boring levels, however scenario rooms make up for most of that. Wolver dens also don't have much happening.
Least favorite in gameplay is likely O:CH, FSC, lichenous lairs... That's about it. More neutral than negative, but O:CH and FSC drag on for so long and are painfully slow solo. Don't hate doing the missions, just need to have a larger party.
My favorite levels are Lichenous Lair, and my least favorite are the compounds (They're so annoying!)
I also like to play in deep depths and on Elite mode, it gives more looting and experience to newbies
~Thanks for the question.
Absolute Favorite Level: Unknown Passage - A Descent into Darkness. The music, the gameplay, the effect, the atmosphere, I love it all and it is hands down my favorite level overall.
Least favorite (gameplay-wise): Deconstruction Zone - Molten Mayhem (although I like the idea behind an "open" level and I actually quite like the idea behind Deconstruction Zones, I simply hate going through Molten Mayhem. I don't know why, I just do)
Maybe it's the thought of being greeted at the gate by 14 flamethrowers?
Least favorite (gameplay) for me: Candlestick. I don't usually enjoy horror themes anyway, and I usually lose a life to the Grimalkin. I just try to speed run to the next level.
Favorite (Visual): Wolver Dens, Aurora Isles, Jigsaw Valley. I enjoy the sunny, grassy atmosphere. (Hmm. I may have to remind myself about Geo Knight Camp.)
Favorite (Gameplay): Snarby. The buildup of each level, with the suspense of Snarby's appearances before his boss battle, combine for a fine piece of work.
Favorite (Gameplay): Fire Deconstruction Zones: Fire specifically because my Archeron frickin MURDERS those Darkfang Scorchers.
Favorite (Visual): Ironclad Munitions Factory: It completely gives you the impression of the factory and it looks even better with the shock all around. However the angle on the boss battle looks kinda dumb to me.
Favorite (Musical): Unknown Passage: I've never been in a Shadow Lair before, but this music truly makes you feel like the swarm is an actual swarm coming for you.
Scumbag (Gameplay): Freeze-Construct: If you've ever been brutally murdered by a Silversap. (I have a Lv.70+ Seraphynx now)
Scumbag (Visual): Firestorm Citadel, there's too much fire. I know that I'm a wizard, but I don't like the intense amount if Shadow fire.
Scumbag (Music): Blades of the Fallen: The music is too dark for me. That's all I have to say.

Least favorite background: Graveyard - Where Monsters Fear to Tread.
