Ms Brown stayed at the hotel from May 9 to May 11,the week of her election.
The complaint was made by the hotel following her departure on the Wednesday.
A spokesman for the North Wales AM told the BBC:
Michelle had recently spent a couple of nights at a hotel with smoking rooms, of which there are many across the UK, and regrettably forgot she was staying in a hotel without such rooms.
It was an absent-minded mistake, and Michelle paid the resulting cleaning fee.
A spokesman for the hotel told the BBC:
Future Inns would like to confirm the illegal use of drugs on our premises at any time is not allowed.
We do not, however, discuss these matters with third parties except as required by law enforcement authorities.
