Given the definition from the documentation "Whether the host was reachable when the last check occurred." https://www.icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/09-object-types/#host I would say that it indicates whether host was actually reachable at the time the last check took place. If a scheduled check didn't take place for some reason, the host won't be checked for reachability. If a check did take place, was the host itself reachable, independent of the outcome of the check. The attribute 'last_check' will tell you when the last check did take place. Note that somewhat misleadingly, the attribute 'state' will tell you the state of the object at that last check, whereas 'last_state' will tell you the state at the *previous* check.
