Have you tried re-starting your phone and/or doing a hard re-set and then checking storage again?

If that doesn't help I would suggest deleting Notes (which you can now do in iOS 11) and then re-installing it from the App Store.

Delete built-in Apple apps on your iOS 11 device or Apple Watch - Apple Support

Make sure you search exactly for "Notes" and get Apple´s own app, which should be the first item found! Just for reference: I use Notes extensively on an iPhone X and have 511 notes, many with graphics and diagrams. Notes itself is only 13.6 MB, and all my data 30.4 MB. Hope this helps you! Regards, Ian.
