As 1010 WINS' Roger Stern reported, police said that there were no signs of foul play and that a suicide note was not found at the scene.

The discovery left those close to the couple shocked.

"This is what's killing me. I was up all night. I just can't understand. He's not a foolish way of thinking young man, he's a responsible young man," Terry Delre said.

The bodies were discovered when a maid was sent to the room after the couple failed to check out.

No weapons or evidence of drugs or drug paraphernalia were found, a police source told the New York Post.
