What's the best distro for a very old laptop, for everyday use, and for someone not experienced at all with Linux and not really interested in learning about it?

How old? You could try puppy Linux, it fully operates in RAM so it will be fast and has pretty much all software you'd need, though I hear it's difficult installing new software on it.
Alternatives are distros with light desktop environments like Mate, XFCE or LXDE. Ubuntu mate or Manjaro with xfce are excellent as everyday distros.

Just torrent an appropriate Windows version.
Very old has no meaning and of course you were too lazy to post THE FUCKING SPECS.

Stick with Windows.
