I've used this combination of arguments for years...

-F appends '/' after folders, '*' after executables etc.
-l long format, i.e. dates and permissions
-a includes directory entries beginning with a '.'
-i prints file inode (serial) number

...and often add the following alias in .bashrc:

alias ls='ls -Flai'

Type ls --help for more information.
