You should the correct one. If your unsure then leave it unknown. I'm sure it's Barn Swallow. And both do. But as I said look online at the type of nest and you'll know.

Either one is good enough for me. Do Swallows nest in people's balconies?

More like a Barn Swallow. Nest of Cliff looks more like a gourd and is mostly mud. Barn Swallows is mix of mud, gravel and twigs and is shaped like a half a bowl.

Looks like possibly a cliff swallow (Petrochelidon sp.).
